It is like standing on the edge of one of those lakes in Switzerland, so blue and so calm and so deep and so dangerous.

Marguerite Kaye / quote

09Undated

I thought I had to be alone to be free. But I am only ever truly myself when I am with you, Azhar. I know, that is such an -- an extravagant thing to say, but it is true.

You're warning me off. There's no need, I assure you. At this moment in time, my only ambition is to get myself through the day ---" He broke off, realising too late what he'd admitted, remembering, suddenly, why he had kissed her in the first place.
